Diverticular disease is characterized by the presence of diverticula in the colon wall, due to an increase in intraluminal pressure. The diverticula aDiverticular disease is characterized by the presence of diverticula in the colon wall, due to an increase in intraluminal pressure. The diverticula are pouches that usually form on the left side of the colon wall, but can take the whole colon. When an increase in intraluminal pressure comes a pulsion of muscosa occurs through colonic muscle layers in their weaknesses, which correspond to the points where the neurovascular bundles penetrate. In most cases, diverticular disease has no symptoms, and only when there is bleeding or diverticulitis complications can occur. Diverticulitis (the infection of diverticula ) in turn can cause abdominal pain, fever, and chills. The most serious complications may even cause an ruputura or the appearance of fistulas that will require surgery. The treatment of diverticular disease is basic and is based on regular consumption of dietary fiber. In the case of diverticulitis, treatment should be done by antibiotics ( oral or intravenous ), restrictions on food and stool softeners....

Gallbladder surgery is the surgical intervention that is performed to remove the gallbladder, an organ located at the bottom of the liver and serves aGallbladder surgery is the surgical intervention that is performed to remove the gallbladder, an organ located at the bottom of the liver and serves as a reserve for the bile. Its removal is indicated when the patient has pain or symptoms caused by the formation of calculus ( stones) in the gallbladder. The gallbladder operation can be minimally invasive or open. In the first case, the surgeon will make three or four incisions in the abdomen, and one of the holes, will introduce a laparoscope (a thin, lighted tube connected to a camera that allows the inside of the cavity) and other instruments to perform the procedure. Then, also gas with a needle inserted to expand the abdomen and cut the bile duct and blood vessels that lead to the gallbladder. Finally, extirpated the board. When the disease is more severe or there are complications during gallbladder surgery, performed an open operation. This involves making a small cut in the abdomen to open it and remove the gallbladder through the incision.

Laparoscopy is a surgical technique of inspection of the abdominal cavity that does not need to make large incisions. During the laparoscopic surgery Laparoscopy is a surgical technique of inspection of the abdominal cavity that does not need to make large incisions. During the laparoscopic surgery procedure, a laparoscope is inserted into the abdomen, which is a tube that contains an optical system coupled to a light source. The camera allows the doctor to inspect, from a monitor, the pelvic organs and, if necessary, introduce other instruments through the same laparoscope to correct a problem. The advantages of surgical laparoscopy are many, so it is applied in various specialties. In urology, less hospitalization and recovery time is required, there is less possibility of infectious complications, less postoperative pain and no visible scars. In gynecology it is used to perform the inspection of some pathologies or gynecological processes: cysts, myomas, hysterectomies, pelvic inflammatory diseases, ectopic pregnancies, etc. In addition, laparoscopy is used in other medical specialties and processes such as prostate cancer, varicella or some kidney diseases.

Vesicular or gallstones, called calculations are solid salt deposits resizable (from a grain of sand to a nut) calcium compounds and bilirubin, chole Vesicular or gallstones, called calculations are solid salt deposits resizable (from a grain of sand to a nut) calcium compounds and bilirubin, cholesterol or a combination of the three, that form in the gallbladder . The gallstones cause no symptoms in many cases, although the patient may have a yellowish skin color (jaundice), fever or abdominal pain and even make stools whitish or have dizziness and vomiting. If the stones in the gallbladder symptoms occur, the patient usually requires surgery, which can be minimally invasive through small incisions in the abdomen through which a laparoscope and other tools (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) or open (open cholecystectomy) are introduced. You can also administer medications, although the disappearance of the stones in the gallbladder is slow and may recur after treatment. ...

Hiatal hernia is a condition that occurs when a portion of the stomach rises into the chest, through an opening located in the diaphragm, the barrier that separates the chest from the abdomen. When the stomach moves into the chest, said gap loses its function and gastroesophageal reflux occurs, ie, the stomach contents back into the esophagus and irritate. The symptoms caused by this condition may be burning in the chest or throat, hoarseness, hoarseness, asthma or respiratory problems. The symptoms worsen after eating, during sleep or flex the trunk. Treatment for hiatal hernia depends on its severity, and sometimes does not require any type of therapy. In mild cases, the purpose is to control symptoms that improve with dietary measures and postural changes such as raising the head of the bed. In severe cases you can opt for the operation of a hiatal hernia, which is usually performed with the technique of fundoplication (minimally invasive laparoscopy). ...

An inguinal hernia occurs when a portion of an abdominal organ (typically the intestine) goes through a hole in a weak zone that contains the wall and form a bulge under the skin in the groin area. Inguinal hernia can be direct, manifested in the anterior abdominal wall, with oval and reducible aspect, or indirect, which usually reach the scrotum. The most obvious symptom is a swelling in the groin, which can cause pain, increasing with the effort, but it can also happen that the patient does not present any package and note only discomfort in the area walking or make efforts. The danger of inguinal hernia occurs when the intestine is strangled by the hole and blood circulation (strangulated hernia) is cut, which can cause a tear in the body and cause peritonitis (inflammation of the membrane lining the wall abdomen and abdominal organs). The indicated treatment is an inguinal hernia operation, which involves the reintroduction into the abdomen and externalized part in reinforcing the wall that contains it with their own fabrics, meshes or prosthesis. Surgery may be opened in the groin or minimally invasive in the abdomen through a laparoscope. ...
